Think you need to change this thread to simply "When".
The only time it makes sense to fire a HC mid-season is only when it is evident that he has lost the locker room and the team quits on him. Otherwise I think more harm than good comes from a mid season firing.

Facts are
1. No secret that Gruden entered this season, firmly on the hot seat.
2. You are 0-3. Of 176 teams in the league history that have started 0-3, only 6 ever made it to the playoffs.

So odds are more than favorable that Gruden has coached his last season in DC. Now we have to ask ourselves "Who would want to come here to coach?"
